The Lyrics

Let’s be thankful for graduation day,
With students walking down the hall,
Be thankful for that “Yee-haw!” line; say,
That quote is neither trite nor small,

A “Yee-haw!” won’t make you sleep or snore,
So why regret a line like this?
Be thankful, that Gary gave much more,
Than acting trite and being kissed.

Remember, that into every life,
That high school graduation calls,
But you’ll find, that with the “Yee-haw!” line,
We’re pretty lucky after all!

Be thankful, for Gary’s “Yee-haw!!” shared,
Beneath a high school’s roof above,
Be thankful, ‘cause Gary said it there,
Give him the Medal of Freedom!

Tardsy! You’re back! On behalf of the board, thank you for the reprieve. Was it because someone out there at Idiot Acres lost the crayon, or were you still trying to sound the words out from my replies the day before? I see you’re back to the Gary thing again, meaning the other five subjects you tend to beat into the ground will be making their appearance soon. Are you open to writing commentary that doesn't include copying and parroting phrases that I wrote? So far, the evidence suggests otherwise. Here, I'll bring it down to your level: Idd okays, when you can't thinks of anything to write, just write darrrrrrrrrrr. You can vary the number of letters so you'll feel like you pulled off something clever, just like when you post variants of your 'tard anthem.

Ha! Nobody bothers to comment anymore, let alone even read your recycled garbage, so you do what any slobbering, attention-starved anencephalic would do: reprise a past entry. And of course, it wouldn’t be you if you didn’t post it under my name, as if most readers couldn’t discern the difference. Just curious, does it hurt to be that stupid?

You must be new or naïve to think that you’re gonna get a break from this hoedown-hootenanny school day o’ mine. Even though I hail from New York, I brought ev’ry doggone bit of Texas cowboy pride to that last week of high school. I roped water fountains, brought out a Hobby Horse and went through the school hallways, and kissed ev’ry pretty girl you could think of, including that one cheerleader to whom I declared, “There is no woman as hot as she is”. Yep, this last week of high school was the high point of my completely false and inaccurate flaming youth in New York. YEE-HAW!!!!!!!

I’ve asked you this several times but you don’t seem to want to address it: Is there anyone on this planet who is actually proud of you? If so, for what?
